Regenera

We integrate and scale up circular economy principles in the cement supply chain through our Regenera business to drive circularity in the building materials industry.

Circularity solutions

Regenera, launched in 2023, fosters circular economy by reducing the use of virgin materials and extending product life. By collaborating with other industries, Regenera integrates alternative raw materials into production processes. Thus, we leverage our expertise to facilitate the transition to circularity, offering services for waste reception, recovery, and recycling.

Circular economy

The reduce, recycle, and reuse approach of a circular economy help preserve natural resources and lower carbon emissions. Through efficient design, it fosters a sustainable world.

Reduce resource extraction 

Reducing reliance on virgin raw materials in a circular economy benefits the planet by conserving resources and minimizing environmental impact. By using recycled inputs, we reduce waste, lower carbon emissions, and preserve natural ecosystems. This shift supports global sustainability and promotes a healthier environment for future generations.

Fostering a circular economy 

We are at the heart of the circular economy, with the capability to recycle materials from a variety of waste streams and generate renewable energy from organic materials.

Commited to circularity

Through Regenera, we apply our expertise in waste management and infrastructure to use waste and industrial byproducts as sustainable substitutes for fossil fuels and raw materials.

Infinite recyclability

The construction industry plays a vital role in the circular economy. Regenera recycles rubble and debris, transforming them into aggregates for new concrete or raw materials for lower-carbon cement, thereby reducing reliance on virgin materials. By circulating products and materials, we conserve resources, cut emissions, and minimize the environmental impact of construction.

Industrial byproducts

We identify industrial and waste byproducts and use them as alternative raw materials. This helps our partners avoid landfilling while we preserve natural resources and lower carbon emissions. In the cement production process, we can replace part of the clinker with byproducts, including fly ash and slag.

Waste to energy

Through Regenera, we recover and send recyclable materials to other industries for reuse, while using non-recyclables as fuel at Cemex’s cement kilns, reducing landfill waste and fossil fuel use. This conserves resources, lowers emissions, and supports the circular economy's goal of minimizing waste and promoting sustainability.

Regenera around the world

Our circularity solutions focus on diverse initatives like zero waste, recycling, and environmental restoration, improving resources efficiency, and creating new businesses opportunities.

Future in Action

Regenera is part of Future in Action, Cemex's program to achieve sustainable excellence through climate action, circularity, and natural resource management with the primary objective of becoming a net-zero CO2 company by 2050.
